8 months old



Show-y turned 8 months old on Christmas Eve, the 24th.

How in the world can my baby girl be 8 months old? I feel like I keep saying this and thinking this with all three of our lovely ladies as they continue to grow right before our eyes. It's crazy how quickly time flies! My hope is that we're shaping incredible memories for the three of them, just as we have for ourselves of them growing up with us.

Abrie has become a little parakeet this past week. She says "Momma" so distinctly!!! I am beyond excited, as "Da Da" was always first with both Madison and Faith. I was chump change in their vocabularies. But, my Beeba girl is my little buddy. She adores her Momma, as I adore her! Of course, Daddy is her best friend and she just loves him. He makes her smile quicker than anybody I have ever seen. But, I still love that she calls for me all the time. It's precious! And, she also says something that sounds like "dob dob dob dub dub dub" all day long. Maddie and Faith love this.

She's nursing 3x a day, but a lot of the times only twice a day. She's loving all the Gerber snacks, and still trying to make heads out of her sippie cup. Some days she has it figured out, and other days she can't get it. She's climbing a few stairs at a time, standing up on everything, and cruising everywhere- and has been for 2 weeks or so.

I love my girl!

  1. Sounds like she's really growing up! Ford hasn't started to try to climb our stairs yet, thank god! I'm so not ready for him to start doing that. And YAY for saying "momma"! I feel so great that 'mom' was both of my kids first word!

    I can't wait to see how she grows in the next month!

  2. Thank you for the sweet comment!

    I think it's so neat that she and Ford are only 2 days apart, and I love hearing what Ford is up to also. "Momma" is definitely the most awesome word right now!!
